Thank you to whoever put in this classlead and those that voted for it. This was annoying me greatly but I'm not familiar enough with the whole classleads system so I didn't feel comfortable trying to enter it myself.
@Keroc , I know we give you $'s to do it, but you still deserve thanks. Thank you for handling classleads! Four times a year you weather salt and math to try to keep the game interesting, balanced, and responsive.
Also massive thank you for everyone had been really welcoming and helpful in Bloodloch as well and it's just been so fun
Cheers!
It was just a really nice gesture and similarly a big thanks to everybody in Bloodloch who has helped me settle into the game! When I first made my character I was overwhelmed by the amount of info being thrown in my direction, but the people really do make this place. Now just to try and help the Dominion become a little more active...
Kalena (no tag for her i guess!) @Isia @Rijetta @Mjoll @Irys @Pilar
If we've rpd and you're not tagged here, know you helped too! I'm just in a bit of rush but feeling sentimental.
Whether it's been strictly PK talk or that arghpee thing, I've been enjoying my time back because of all of you. Thanks.
@Sekeres, @Valorie, @Rihrin, @Pieri, @Aolin, @Stine, @Iesid, @Eoros, @Sibatti, @Valeria, @Jhura, @Flinn, and of course, the brilliantly talented @Omei.
Straid has been very fortunate in his friends and allies and things just never cease to grow more interesting with you guys. Cheers!
(Seriously I haven't had this much fun since the good ol' days of @Aisling's pack)
It's like when you think you know everything about something, and then a hidden wall scoots by beneath a bookcase and you realize you're only halfway into learning all the secrets.
Also, because I think it's a recognition well-deserved: I'm sure it's you, because only you could forget to turn off progs and kill off denizens with lemonade puns, but much love and appreciation to @Tedrunai and also any other involved members of the Pools for what I feel was a slightly different take (in comparison to Kornar's) on dealing with the rebellion in El'Jazira. I enjoyed the ability to use actual troops to contend with denizen divisions in the village, while the siege weapons and war tents for reinforcements were a very nice touch to the whole perception of a fluid war scene/situation. Already, we're seeing what might be in store for Lich Gardens, and I'm excited to see where we're going with this!
To the rest of the Pools: I see all the hints you guys have been dropping, and that has been making me (and Elene) very excited too. I'm watching, you guys, and absolutely can't wait to see what else is being fed to us in little dribbles.
#TeamShadowTether
@Callidora @Zenobia @Tirria @Tina @Rijetta @Elene @Pentas @Kanivara @Mjoll @Chakrasul and Her Order @Irys @Jhaelen @Blaze @probably a lot of other people because it's been a hot minute so don't be butt hurt I still love you
Y'all got me as a n00b and some of you even treated me like one from time to time. Thank you for your generous time with RP and for indulging my less than typical character choices, helping me to build and develop a dynamic rajamala whom I never could have predicted going into this. I know there are various complicated tensions and conflict that run parallel to the good stuff, but underlying everything is amazing writing.
#TeamLightTether
@Sekeres @Slyphe @Ethne @Dhar (I know we only spoke briefly once but thanks for not smiting me) @Omei and Her Order @Lin @Aisling @Ayastia (lol you're over here now) @Iesid @Straid @Rasani @Kallah @Flinn @Kaiara @Probaby so many more people but again my memory is unicorns so feel my love anyway, what's in a name
What a time, kids. We sure have been butting heads since like... last November. The variations in RP from everyone have challenged me as a writer and a person to stick with my writing choices, and that is important, too. Now a whole new wave of colour (and sometimes conflict) has come to fill in blanks and details, offering context and depth to conflict, and opening entire new worlds to explore, create and develop within.
@Cameryn @Marin @Zareen
you're kinda new to Teotl! Welcome! Way to rep the #whatTether? group. Our RPs thus far have been excellent and I look forward to much more from all of you.
You may all continue to brace yourselves for the dreaded tell...
"I have questions."
You two have made Ayas transition as painless as possible, always there to encourage and teach. Aya couldn't ask for better friends
@Kalena
From the very beginning Aya had her support when considering changing. Since long before she actually did. A steady friend who was welcoming but never pushy. You too, @Eoros
@Omei who I NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS thought Aya would join. We have had our problems, but thank you for making this an enjoyable experience
And too many shadow people to list. You have all been great. I still love you all!
I have a lot of appreciation for @Damonicus and the workload he has taken on. Is definitely inspiring to get off my butt and actually do something useful in the game aside from my regular stuff. Cheers to you!
Endless appreciation for @Didi and the positivity that she brings to everything she gets involved in. Always great to chat with you and RP or do milestones
So much appreciation for @Menelaus for still even being here. We've been playing together on and off for like 15 years or something now and it is great to have an old friend online whenever I come back to the game. You make it worth it!
Oodles of appreciation for @Callidora for being insightful, helpful, and just overall fun to interact with and be around be it IC or OOC.
@Corvo , I appreciate you helping out with trying to find my heart when it was lost. I look forward to getting to know you better!
For my biggest bro @Dourif . I don't think I would have stuck around as long as I have this time around if we hadn't connected and started working on our crazy ideas together. It is awesome to have a partner in crime and we've got a lot of work ahead of us!
My favorite non-Consanguine brew tater. @Nebula You are just all around awesome and fun to play with, be it questing, light RP, chatting, whatever. Very happy to have met you and looking forward to lots of brew tating with you.
@Saidenn Waffles!
Much appreciation for the Chaos Lord @Rhyot himself, for being a great source of information when my n00b brain needs it and for being an all around great player to enjoy the game with.
For my other bro @Jhin , I look forward to working with you on your big projects. You've got a lot of ambition and I love being a part of it!
For the one and only @Tiur , thanks for stopping by my clan once in a while. Your visits are always appreciated!
And to the rest of my Shadow peeps and The Graveyard shift, you make it worth logging in!
To the IRE and Aetolia teams making this game last as long as it has, you are the best!
Love you all!

Equally infinite amounts of love for the Archivists. I am very glad I decided to dust off my pocket protector and return to Nerdville. Y'all are fantastic. Thank you thank you thank you for being so awesome, such incredible writers, and so engaging to be involved with.
For Cat Mom @Omei
For dubious Drunk Uncle @Haern
3 Divine in one casual rp was a major treat and I got additional joy finding you all 'gifts' for this post. Thanks for being a weird dysfunctional family in public
And thank you to @Sryaen, @Kalena, and all the others for love in the form of stockings!
Whether you were my ride or die knife donaters helping me every single day for the months it took, or you only were able to help just a few times: @Robyn @Aisling @Trikal @Mjoll @Xenia @Jhin @Corvo @Oriana, Ranae, Kalena, @Anahera, @Mazzion . Thank you all for being fantastic and never once complaining for when I'd ask for a knife.
In addition to the above, people that helped me with a steady stream of chocolates, compendium pages, cheap chalices, and anything else I needed to make it as smooth as possible: @Aolin, @Sryaen, @Mati, @Rasani, @Elene, @Valeria, @Haven, @Alela, @Bulrok, @Safiya, @Tetchta, @Pilar, @Sepzane, Tee, Rynkhia, @Iesid, Khelzya. Thank you all for your contributions, no matter how big or small they were. They all added up.
Extra thank you to @Trikal for the translocator to help make things go much smoother. Thank you @Bulrok for rainbow crits. They really did make me bash 80% faster.
Special thank yous to @Sibatti, @Maeve, and @Aisling for description/design help.
The person who easily deserves the biggest thank you that I can never thank enough for all that she does is @Valorie. You incredibly supportive the entire time it took me to finish the grind, would constantly buy chocolates, sort them for me, make sure I had plenty of gold for transmutes, grab any cheap items she saw on the market, kept me stocked on pills and elixirs, and micromanaged everything for me to make it as easy as possible. You've been one of the greatest friends anyone could ever have hoped to meet, and I couldn't have done it without you.
And with the year long overdue thank you of the way, huge thank you to @Ictinus and @Haern for handling all my requests so beautifully and I couldn't have asked for anything better than what I got where the customizations were concerned, and the entire experience. Any Celani that put in legwork in the background, I appreciate you all too. Thank you to everyone that attended, the Shamans, Duiran, Enorian, Mazzion(ha), and some of my old fossil friends that turned up for it as well. This one's definitely going down in the books as one of the coolest christmas presents ever.
I had some art commissioned and I'll be posting the finished products when they're all done, and I'll get the log up as soon as I'm finished cleaning it up.
Thank you everbody! Dendara Eternal!
@Illikaal - I mean it when I say I could not have done this without your help. Thank you for encouraging me and helping me in more ways than I can count, from lending your artifacts to running around all over with me for months. I'm glad we got to do this together
Last but very not the least, thank you to the entire admin team who had a hand in the formation of this race and event, especially @Ictinus. Your patience, creativity, and way with words is awe-inspiring, and I hope I can be half as eloquent a writer as you are one day. Aetherial is everything I hoped it would be and then some, and I am absolutely in love with everything about it (but pls make Veithadros happy, my heart ;_;). The gradients made me SO HAPPY. Thank you for putting up with me panicking for no reason every 5 seconds.
And thank you for the laughter when I realized someone put me back into the Sentinels guild instead of the Shamans <.< Deadvalorie will be sorely missed and I take absolutely no responsibility for announcing to Duiran that the world is gonna end and we're all gonna die.
Today was full of sap and so many feelings and I'll forever be sad about my boy V but the entire event was absolutely perfect, and I am over the moon (pls no hate). You're all stars
Been back for a couple weeks now and just wanted to give a big THANK YOU to everyone who's made that fact a joy, whether it's with big meaty RP scenes or just some fun back-and-forth in tells or on channels. Shout outs to @Galilei, @Naos, @Sekeres, @Ruqayya, @Jhoi, @Eleina, @Rainier, @Lim, @Blodwyn, @Kanivara, all the @Spirit homies who make PvP a thrill, and all the @Shadow crew who are just super chill and good company.
What a cool bunch of people up in this game. Happy New Year.
